Show us the money, with a detective's name signed to it -- that a proposal brought by Feldman to detectives contained such information. Before that, it is so much unfounded insinuation.

The same kind of insinuation that Feldman presented in trial as evidence that Westerfield was innocent?

You may remember that under our legal system the TOTAL burden of proof is on the prosecution. The defense is required to prove nothing. I believe that this system was purposeful.

Feldman has the right to insinuate that. The detectives may have a right to insinuate the opposite. That doesn't mean they aren't sleazes if they know they are wrong (and unlike Feldman -- who would only have a strong reason to suspect Westerfield's guilt -- the detectives WOULD know they are wrong).

Feldman has the right to insinuate that. The detectives may have a right to insinuate the opposite [I mean, that Feldman knew of Westerfield's knowledge of the body's location. - HTRN] . That doesn't mean they aren't, respectively, sleazes if they know they are wrong (and unlike Feldman -- who would only have a strong reason to suspect Westerfield's guilt -- the detectives WOULD have a reason to know they are wrong).
